[CrazyLou]

I'd like to once again thank everyone for playing. As of now it seems Nicky Santoro's team is far in the lead, I wanted to get these up ASAP so you all can see where you ended up.

Please allow a 3-4 unit margin for error as over 3500 picks have been graded by hand thus far, if you feel you should be #1 thus winning this contest please let me know.

If any of the 9 remaining teams kept any standings we can make an official announcement even sooner: Cappers Inc, We Dont Give, Stinkyfat coots, shark attack, checkers chasers, degens are us, chalk cit, 4 horsemen.

Sorry this contest dragged on so long, and thanks again for the participation! Thanks to all the teams who kept standings of themselves as well, you helped a ton. I will continue closing out the teams and if no one has surpassed Cosa Nostra, they will be declared winner!

Congrats for a dominant performance, Team Cosa Nostra.

Way to go

[daggerkobe]

Damn we couldve made up 15 units or so had there been a damn standing during it. Our 4th guy didnt even pick the required min picks so we were penalized.

Thanks for posting a standing 36 days after the contest began. :

[pavyracer]

591 picks

Thank you Lou!

[onthewhat]

[treece]

Christ my team sucked, finished dead last. I did my part I went 12-9-1 +2.59. Not my fault they only made 13 picks between the 3 guys.

After further review, the only team left which had a shot at usurping Team Cosa Nostra, (Stinky Fat Coots) has been graded at being 217-185-7 for 53.98% and +19.35 units.

Therefor, it is official. Congrats Team Cosa Nostra for dominating the Team Competition!

And, thanks everyone for all of the feedback over this past month and change. In the future we may experiment with a direct, Team Vs Team bracket tourney similar to the 128 for teams! As always, your commentary is quite helpful.

[Kingctb27]

Lol congrats on making almost 20 plays a day. Wow. Thought we were the ones who "played every move."

Fuggin degens.

[Nicky Santoro]

onner, i cant believe it.. after all that hard work we put into this for 1 month... all we get is a measly official announcement that we won in the middle of a thread on post #18??

not even a special new thread announcing us the official winners of the contest??

kinger, i feel some anger in your voice.. i wonder why.. is it because you've been mocking us since day 1 that you would beat us and now just pissed..

[onthewhat]

[Deuce]

All Nicky does lately on this forum is complain like an unhappy wife of 20 years, yo nick if it's so bad here then why don't you bounce then ? It seems to me that would be the wise choice of the two, rather than staying, anyways just my 2 sense on Nickys attitude as of late.

[BeatTheJerk]

Congratulations though to team Cosa Nostra , solid cappers across the board.

[yisman]

Lou, all the players on Checkers Chasers have their totals graded, I believe.

I had it up until a certain point. http://forum.sbrforum.com/handicappi...ml#post1322415


I also graded most of the individual days left:

http://forum.sbrforum.com/handicappi...122371-p2.html

I scored the other three:

checkerboard final: 31-27-2 +2.05
pags final: 15-8, +5.29 units
cheme82 final: 47-56-2, -11.96

cheme82

[CrazyLou]

Thanks Yisman, I did some tracking and once I realized it was official that Nicky's team had won I wanted to get it posted officially right away. I appreciate your tallying very much, it was a great guide and help to me.

Hi Dagger,

I'm sorry that the contest wasn't well structured, and that Daily Standings weren't made possible. I've appreciated all the feedback yourself and others have given, and of course will implement some of those suggestions going forward.

From surveying some of you about this, it sounds like the next big thing would be a Team Bracket Cap Off, similar to 128 but for teams. Again, thanks for playing and all the feedback along the way. It's helped me pinpoint ways to improve the forum contests going forward.

We'll see, right now we have the 128 underway, a bunch of neat stuff for March Madness on the horizon, as well as a wave of poker coming up this spring. There should be no shortage of stuff to play, and next football season things should be bigger and better in just about every way.
